Hardwood Kiln Dried, Kiln Stacking Sticks
Typical stick lengths are 4ft, 6ft, 7ft, and 8ft, with variations
to lengths, thickness and width based on customer specifications. If
the customer wants the stick long enough to fit into the channel iron
stick guides to insure proper stick
alignment, then the sticks may need to be two inches longer than
the pack width. Keep in mind the sticks ends will protrude and the lift
operator may damage the ends of the sticks by bumping them when
handling the pack. The design of
stackers varies with practically every operation so the length
may vary a few inches for each customer. The same is true for the
thickness.
If the customer wants a lot of air-flow between the lumber layers a thicker stick such as a 1" X 1" X ?' may be desired. If more kiln capacity is desired and air-flow is not as critical, usually a 7/8" or 3/4" X 1 1/4" X ?' is desired. The customer should keep in mind that if he is receiving a green or non-dry stick, shrinkage will occur upon drying and if a particular thickness after drying the stick is desired, then a slightly heavier thickness should be ordered to allow for shrinkage which may be as much as 8%. To improve drying quality and lumber uniformity after drying, always use uniform thickness sticks and cross-pieces. Customers who have used our uniform sticks and cross-pieces say they have improved yield by 12% in some applications which require extremely straight lumber.
Any dry sticks have to be quoted at the time of shipment due to changing prices and availability of dry lumber
All prices are subject to change based on prices and availability of lumber
We can arrange shipping all over the U.S. or the customer can arrange trucking
We can S2S sticks to any size and cut to any length. All of our sticks are made of Hard-Hardwoods.
